Dear WC
Family and
Friends
The strategic plan that you are about to read is the result of a six month
planning process that represents the best of the collective dreams and
thoughts about what should be our school’s guiding principles over
the next five years. The most direct input came from the 11 member
planning committee, which met regularly over those six months, and
from the school board, which gave final review and approval. But in
a larger sense, I believe it also flows from the countless conversations
and meetings the school leadership has had over the years with our
broader constituency — students, parents, alumni, faculty, church
leaders, and friends of the school. We are grateful for that and hope
that this plan is a means to continue the conversation into the future.
The plan represents the priorities and actions within our strategic
planning but it does not necessarily specify how those priorities
and actions will be implemented. This allows the school to
maintain flexibility over the next five years in reaction to changing
circumstances while still remaining committed to the principles within
the plan.
The plan is ambitious and will require God acting on our behalf in
order to accomplish it. But what better thing to be ambitious about
than the education and spiritual formation of our children? We believe
God has called us to attempt and to accomplish great things for
His glory and the benefit of our children. Would you join us in that
process? Your prayers and involvement will play a vital role in any
success we have in accomplishing this plan.
“We are His body, the fullness of Him who fills everything in every way.”
Ephesians 1:23
